    Guess we'd better move on with this

    It is not Mary Goodnight, It is not Jacques Bouvar from Thunderball, It is not Milton Krest, It is not Peter Franks, It is not Elektra King, It is not Renard as mentioned, and it is not Lisl Von Schlaff. Add to that, it is not Donald Grant if anyone had any ideas

    One more thing, all clues are relevant and associated with the character you seek. There are no red herrings or false trails. Every clue has a connection to the character in question

    Keep the responses coming and I'll check back for progress sometime soon

    Honey Rider from Dr No?

    As soon as I think that I'm onto something then one of the other clues throws me off. I'm quite baffled at this point so I'll give one last go at it and guess Hans from YOLT.

    It is not Honey Ryder, or Nick Nack or Hans from You Only Live Twice

    Can only manage a quick update for today but hopefully this should seal it for many


    #41 I went In, I went Down, I went Up, and went no further

    #42 I didn't recieve the recognition I deserved - or was rudely ignored

    #43 I was (greatly) responsible for the waste of two good measures of liquor

    #44 I can may be excused, any fundamental errors

    #45 I'm not often heard, and not often seen (in the bigger picture)



    Good luck again to any, and all, participants, and will check back at a later date

    I thought it might have been Peter Franks on the page before this, but it cant have been, so i'll take a guess at Tee Hee?

    Is it Baron Samedi?

    If not him, Necros? I hate throwing out two guesses, but some make me think of the former, and others, the latter.

    Really just throwing this out there: Blofeld?

    (Yeah, I just thought of Baron Samedi, too, Creasy47)

    Goldfinger?

    I figure I'm wrong, but you may have it. So many clues do allude to Blofeld, especially #10.

    Eh, but it is unlikely Baltimore would go with a major character, I think. I will not hold my breath, but some clues do seem to fit him. But I thought the same of Max Kalba. This is a tough one, yeah.

    I think my problem is that I think of a character, scan the clues, one of those clues most certainly fits, and then I try to warp my thinking into making other clues fit somehow. I'm sure you could take any character from the series and attach a few of these clues to him or her.

    I'm going really left field here:

    Is it Dr Noah/Jimmy Bond from CR'67?

    Dr. No?

    I feel sorry for Baltimore when he has to explain how every single one of these clues links to the character. For his sake, can someone get it right soon? Haha!

    He had a 50 clue one sometime during the last year, I think. Yes, it's interesting having the clues explained!
    I think he is sleeping now (I'm in a different time zone than many ...)

    Clue No.11 is the one that has thrown me off each time, I could guess 10 times and they would all add up to at least 5 correct clues each but none No.11. Truly baffled.

    It makes me think of Tracy/Blofeld.

    You can add Baron Samedi, Necros, any Blofeld (I would never do Blofeld), Goldfinger, Dr Noah, Jimmy Bond, Dr No, and Tracy Di Vicenzo to the list of incorrect responses

    Can't really offer any more assistance on this by way of clues. 50 is a good number, but understand when finally solved, will not be explaining every clue in relevance to the eventual character. They all do fit in, there are no false trails, but any questions when the time arises, just highlight a particular number, or numbers, and will be content to explain or give an understanding

    Until then, keep looking for that elusive name
